Analyst Note

This image shows a functioned AGM-154A Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) air-to-surface missile. Upon functioning, a flexible linear shaped charge (FLSC) is used to cut open the munition body, dispensing 145 BLU-97B/B submunitions. The clean-cut edges visible on the bottom hanging section of the JSOW are the hallmark of the functioning of the FLSC. (ARES)
